Hi, just registered to say that I already have the game and it's awesome. The graphics are astounding, it's sure a change to see the characters in such a big way. I haven't had the chance to play a lot, but I already have the first medal and the Kanto starter. The pokemons level up pretty fast, and you start finding pokemons from other generations at the beginning. The first one i met was... pidgey, lol.

I'm just waiting to finish my 8 hours of work today so I can get back to play!

One of the things I'm looking forward to is the soundtrack. I always enjoy the soundtrack in every new Poke game.

But anyways, quick question. Has there been any word if play coins are used in the game at all? Haven't heard anything about them and I know certain games use them for cool stuff, like Animal Crossing for example.

Does anyone know about the in game storage? For how many boxes, storage space, or any new changes/features? I'm thinking its gonna be crap since there gonna want u to pay for pokemon bank. Hopefully I'm wrong. I'd like to see some new storage wallpaper too. Would be awesome if they released new ones & we could buy them with play coins or something.

@BlackAngel - Yea I was wondering the same thing. Would be nice to know so we could start saving those play coins now.

Question. In past games, by default, you get the option to switch Pokémon Before the oponent sends his out, right? But you could Always change so that you couldn't. Can you do that in XY, too? The same seems very easy, and I rather not have a option that makes it all much easier still. ^^

Is apparantly Dragon Type in the Friend Safari. Neat.

One of these Spoilers has a very Hot Chick hidden. One has Yaoi. And one will eat your Soul. Choose at your own risk~

You'll have enough to store all 718 Pokemon and then some, just as has always been the case.

So with EXP Share affecting all Pokemon, does that also mean they are all getting the EVs from that encounter?

Don't think so. But if you're worried about it, the EXP Share can be turned off from what I understand.

Yes it would, any Pokemon that gains Experience gets EVs.

Don't see why they would get rid of an option that is present in every Generation since the very first.

If so, I'm very sad because I was very much looking forward towards playing in Japanese and only switching to English when something I don't understand yet would come up.

Nobody knows?

edit: Just found it....whyyyyy:

Now you can play in English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, or Italian!Note that once you select a language, you won't be able to change languages again during gameplay.

My last hope is that "during gameplay" might mean "you can still change it when booting the game", but they specifically say you chose the language at the beginning of your adventure....sigh.
